Italy energy markets outlook 2014 - gas

Report summary

Gas demand from the power sector is the largest demand driver, followed by the Residential/Commercial and industrial sectors. Over recent years, a large number of new LNG import terminals have been proposed, but progress has been limited due to difficulties gaining approval from the Italian authorities.

Description

Due to their sensitivity to political events and the global economy, energy demand and trade remain extremely volatile. The rapidly changing cost environment for hydrocarbon production and renewable energy, combined with energy policy changes, means the fuel mix in energy markets can be unpredictable at best.
